An hon. member is not in order in dealing in detail with a matter that is sub judice, 1921.

The practice is that when an hon. member gives an assurance in Parlia-ment it is honourably accepted by other hon. members, 2121.

An amendment moved by an hon. mem-ber being specifically covered by existing legislation, and being entirely outside the scope of the bill, is ruled out of order, 2141.

An hon. member must confine himself strictly to the amendment before the chair, 2155, 2165.

Public T1"l~stee Bill: On a motion to re-port pl'Ogress a Minister may not explain a measure, 460.

Settlernent Prornotion Tax Manage7nent Bill: 'fhe Chair will not countenance any insinuation by an hon. member that it is guilty of improper conduct, 2291.

When an hon. member denies having made a statement attributed to him, his denial must be accepted by other hon. members, 2499.

Detailed references to a bill, though in order on the motion for its second reading, are not permissible at the com-mittee stage, during which members must confine themselves to the clnuse befor€' the chair, 3334, 3341, 3345.

ASSEMBLY (continued): CHAIRMAN OF CoMMI'I'l'EES AND DEPUTY

SPEAKER (MR. G. BOOTH), RULINGS, OPINIONS AND 0BSERVATIONS-(con· tinued):

When a motion of urgency is under discussion, a ruling may be gi"l'en on the matter of urgency, but not on the sub· stantive motion, 469.

Standing Order 102. A n1otion of urg· ency for the suspension of standing orders under Standing Order 395, is not subject to the provisions of Standing Order 102, whe1·eunder notices of motion may not be moved· when other business is before the House, 1126.

Pwrty Leaders in the House: The Country party has been recognised for a consider· able number of years as a political unit. Under· the standing orders the leader of that party has certain privileges,

·948. Questions Without Notice: A second ques· tion relating to a certain ma.tter may not be asked until the Minister has replied to the original question thereon, a nc1 one such supplementary question only will ·normally be allowed, 21.

Statements of facts and comments m~y not be made in the asking of questions, 91.

\Vhen a Minister's reply to a question goes beyond the question it becomes a Ministerial statement a-nd the leade1· of the Opposition then has the rig-ht of reply, 96.

Questions should be in concise and simple form, 780.

Long and involved questions necessitat· ing departmental research must be placed on the Questions and Answers paper, 78.

Questions without notice should be confined to matters of an urgent nature and important character, 780.

A newspaper article may not be ma.de the basis of a question unless an hon. member can vouch for its accuracy, 1291.

State Coal Mines (!Amendment) Bill: An hou. member is not in order in refening generally to railway matters, on a bill relating to the State Coal Mines, 1011.

Settlement P1·omotion 1.'ax Managenwn·t Bill: The motion that the hon. member for Corowa, should be grunted nn exton· sion of time was negatived, on the voice~, no call for a division being heard by the Chair. The question that the bill be read a second time was then put, and carried. Doubt as to which question was before the House, may have pre· vailed among members of the Opposition, but the matter was clear to the Chair. It is untrue that the question was put unfairly, 2290.

ASSEMBLY (continued): CHAIRMAN OF COMMI'I'l'EES AND DEPUTY

SPEAKER (MR. G. BOOTH), RULINGS, OPINIONS AND 0BSERVATIONS-(con· tin1teil) :

Tabling of Paperrs: There is no provision in the standing orders for a private mem-ber to lay papers on the table. When papers are bid on the table they be· come public property, but when placed on the table merely to be handed to an hon. member for perusal, there is no official cognisance of them, 1291.

Unparliamentary Expressions: Fifth Col-umnist, as applied to hon. members, 470.

Abattoirs and Homebush 8aleym·cls Select Co1nmittee' s Report: An hon. member is entitled, on the motion for the adoption of a select committee's report, to refer to the report and to eYidence taken at the inquiry, 380.

Baking industry: 11 old up, m .. : As this matter is before the State Industrial Commission, discussion in the House would prejudice the hearing, and pro· bably delay a decision. The motion, therefore, is ruled out of order, 820.

An hon. member must, in compliance with the fonns of the House, accept an· other hon. member's denial of a charge made against him, 381.

RULINGS, OPINIONS AND OBSERVATIONS (contilnued):

Divisions, Recording of: Question asked by hon. member for Leichhardt, 465.

Felicitations, 1520. Fish Marketing Bill: An hon. member is in orcJer while debating a bill relating to the marketing of a particul:n com· modity, in making a relevant reference to the control of other commodities in the market, 927'.

Illicit. Li1Jll01' Traffic, m.: 'l'he Premier ~n speak0g ~o. a motion of w·ge!lcy, is m order m g1vmg 1·easons why a matter is. not one of urgency, 1822.

In~ustrial Arbitration (Amendment) B~ll: An hon. member is entitled to criti-cize, but only fairly and reasonably, and he may not make attacks on the char· acter of trade unionists or anybody else while debating the bill, 1708.

As the bill does not make provision for compulsory unionism a detailed de· bate on that subject would oe out of order. The subject having been referred to by the Minister in charge of the bill, :md by the Leader ·of the Opposition, 1t may be touched upon by hon. mem-bers, but not in such a way as would represent a major contribution to the debate, 1759.

The Country party is a political unit represented in the House, and an hon~ member is entitled to subject it to moderate criticism. If the limit of Par-liamentary criticism is exceeded, Mr. Speaker will protect the Country party 1824. '

An hon. member is entitled to reff'r to 1 he rem::uks o.f another hon. member provided he couches his remarks in Pa/ liament::tr~· lnnguage, 1890.

An hon. member is not in order in reading a newspaper when in the Cham-ber, 1928.

Legal Assistance Bill: P::trliamentarv usage has established that, on the motioii that a bill be read a third time speeches shall be confined to the conten'ts of the measure. Consequently, the debate is not so wide in scope as is permitted on the . motion f?r the second reading of a b1ll, at winch stag·e members are al-lowed to explore, compare, and deviate, so long as they confine remarks to its general principles, 2912, 2913.

Sessianal. Ho·nrs: Extension of Sitting: A question of urgency must be decided by the House upon motion, without notice or debate, except a statement by the mover and by the Minister, each limited to ten minutes, 2147.

ASSEMBLY ( contihued) ': SPEAKER, MR. (THE HQK. D'. CLYNE),-

RULINGS, OPINIONS AND OBSERVATIONS./'. (continued) :

Settlement Promotion 1'ax Manage1nent Bill: An hou. member who has the fioor has the right to reply to or ignore au in-terjection. It is tbe practice if an inteJ"jection is replied to, to recdrd it in Ilansard. If the inter,iection is ignored it is not incorporated in the reiJOrt' 2108. . '

It is a violation of the traditions o :: Parliamentary procedure to resort to the press as a medium for ntt:1cking the action of the Speaker. 'l'he House looks to those of its members who hold high positions to uphold the treasured tradi-tions of Parliament. Certain hon. mem-bers have so far forgotten this 1·esponsi-bility as to take the extraordinary- :wil unchivalrous course of maligning th•.• Speal;er through the press, through d•ich the Speaker is debarred from engag-ing in cont1·oversy. The honour-able course to pmsue would have been to give notice of motio11 under standing order 161 against the action of the Speaker, 2365.

Standing order 161 lHOYitles for " motion of dissent only from a ruling given by the Chair. Though in the case

- in point no ruling was gi,·en by :\fr. Speaker, and the motion of dissent is technically out of order, the Chair permitted that motion to be discusser\ because of the special circumstances at-taching to the incident that prompted it. 2451, 2457.
